I'm 99% sure I have Schizoid Personality Disorder and Avoidant Personality Disorder.

How can I get myself diagnosed officially and how long does it take?

I went to the doctor to get a referral to a psychologist but the doctor said he wants to run a bunch of health tests (blood test, etc) on me to make sure it's not an underlying health issue before I get to use their psychologist.
>>
Some more information on me: I'm 30, HHKV, shut-in, never had the desire to socialise, don't like people, don't care about people etc.
>>
this post is racist! f u op. four black peoples and the white one is the bad one. get out, just get the f out, RACIST

why do you care?
do you want to feel like you have a better understanding of your own existence?

psychs are generally wary of direct request whether it be for diagnoses or medication
>>
>>36743777
I want to see the inside of your fantasy world.
One day we'll be able to explore each others minds. I'm waiting for that day
>>
>>36743826
Not OP, but I also suspect that I have Schizoid PD. All I want is closure as to why I am the way I am. If I can have a reason backed by research, then I'll be more content with my existence.
>>
You're on the right track, you're not going to get an outright diagnosis immediately after the blood work and everything, but after a few sessions the psych should be able to help.
Good luck anon, I hope it all goes well
>>
>>36743777
I just went to a psychologist and paid out of pocket. Had me take two different multiple choice personality inventory things and, after analyzing the results, diagnosed me as AvPD with schizoid features.
When I went to my insurance's psych department they had me see a social worker who knew fuck all about personality disorders and just wrote me a script for an SSRI.
>>
>>36743858
I can understand that
I once went to a psych for closure and was diagnosed with SPD. I didn't know what this was and for a time it was pretty liberating having a name for my experience.
in the end I dont think it improved my quality of life much tho.
>>
Getting a diagnose and having a mental health history on record is required if you ever get to a point where you need to apply for disability payments.
>>
>>36743777
Think I am also genuinely schizoid and went in to get diagnosed (mainly for neet dollarydoos) and the doc just seemed to push me towards anxiety and gave me anti-anxiety meds.

desu schizoid just seems too complicated to them for it to be diagnosed, but it's so relatable for me.
>>
>>36743935

Eh? I can get disability?
I am diagnosed Schizoid.
>>
>>36743972
When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. At least in the US, really the only option a doctor has is to throw meds at you and hope it helps. That or suggest you go out-of-network for a therapist.
>>
>>36743875

Is this for real?

A professional diagnosed you with a personality disorder after barely meeting you?

Sounds like a hack.
>>
>>36743972
I think to get autism-bux for SPD, it has to be bad enough where you refuse to take public transport, wont drive, literally have zero friends or social interaction with anyone etc.
>>
>>36744014
No, that's how a mental health professional diagnoses someone: based on clinically proven tests. Not based on talking to them for a while and pulling some idea out of their ass.

See e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnesota_Multiphasic_Personality_Inventory
>>
>>36744021

I am diagnosed with Schizoid personality disorder after a few months in a mental ward.
Though that was like 15 years ago.
I have made no new friends since and lost all the former friends. But I force myself to work and transport.
It's a torturous life but I've made it this far without neet bucks.
Is neet bucks a thing for this? I never felt that handicapped

If you are a young male (under 25) its taboo for psychiatrists (don't fall for the psychologist meme) to diagnose you with a 'personality disorder'.

Many of them are hesitant to diagnose it because it doesn't solve any issues, and by its own definition is incurable.

Talking to my psychiatrist she was saying that in the some circles of doctors they are actually pushing to remove personality disorders on the whole for the next DSM.
>>
>>36743777
well you should probably get the tests done in case you just have low testosterone or a thyroid issue or something....
I don't see what the hurry is, if you are one you won't stop being one in a couple week's time
>>
>>36744047
Depends what country you're from. If you're American you probably would never get bux for anything like that.

Also, you got diagnosed 15 years ago, the system has changed a lot since then. It's rare that SPD leads to mental ward tier needs, you must have some other issues that made you get there. SPD tends to make people extremely avoidant of any drama or shit going on like that.
>>
>>36744045

Something like a personality disorder isn't such a black and white thing. You dont just automatically have one because you registered a certain score on a test.

A good doctor wouldn't give such an encompassing diagnoses after barely monitoring a patient or going off a questionnaire.

There is nuance they couldn't possibly be made aware of by you ticking some boxes.
>>
i dont believe in mental diseas like adhd and autism and schizoide. they are not dissorders.
they dont exist.
>>
>>36743811

Actually there is only one black person between the white and the gray one. You can't see him because it's on a black background.
>>
>>36744121

Well I was trying to open a dimensional nexus in a abandoned building and let the demons into the world but my plans were stopped.
I don't know man.
They kept me in there for awhile then released me with some pretty light things.
I wasn't 100% honest with them and didn't tell them about the demons of course.
>>
>>36743777

Same here, I cannot stand socializing with anyone.

Do people really like socializing or do they all hate it and see it as a way to get sex?

Also, why the fuck do people want a girlfriend? Girlfriends are just female versions of extremely camp gays. They're literally just annoying cunts with a cunt.
>>
>>36744142
Wow, you have truly enlightened me anon. Thanks.
>>
>>36743795
>never had the desire to socialise, don't like people, don't care about people
Then you're not avoidant.
>>
>>36743858
this so much.

i recently started suspecting i have aspergers, and it explains so much.
Knowing for sure why i'm this will make me feel better.

I go to a psych and got diagnosed with OCD and have tics. I'm wondering if i should ask her whether she notices anything else on me, but then she'll ask me to elaborate...
>>
Modern psychiatry is a bunch of bullshit.
I think the way someone behaves is dependant upon their upbringing.
You dont have a disorder, you just dont like people
>>
>>36743777
also, a lot of people who were misdiagnosed with this or schizophrenia were actually just on the autistic spectrum. Maybe you're just an autist
>>
>>36743777
are you me op. from what I've read its due to having constant negative experiences communicating with family members and people throughout childhood.

My family kept moving before I could make friends at school so I was always that kid who was different. Every time I would meet with people it would be awkward alienating experience.

My mom was always stressed out and never really listened to what I said so that made it worse.

>>36744214
Normies find joy meeting others because overall its been a good experience for them but for people like us we're used to it being a shitty experience so thats why we do whatever we can to avoid it.
>>
Anyone here has that test for several mental illnesses? It has results for narcissism, schizoid, etc.

Pls help
>>
theres no point in getting diagnosed for this because there is basically nothing they can do about it anyway
>>
>>36743858
Well said, Anon. That's my line of thought as well.
>>
>>36745508
But if you don't like people to the point where you avoid people and completely isolate yourself.

Wouldn't you characterize a person like that as dysfunctional on some level?
>>
Mental illness is a corporate scam because there's an industry for absolutely everything. Get over it.
